** I previewed episode 1. Sure, why not? :-) Seems like we could use a hilarity/insanity series to balance out the lack of such in the rest of the proposed schedule. --maxb
* Ore Monogatari (25)?
* Ore Monogatari (25)?
** I think this has merit (currently have watched 17/25 episodes), though it is the slowish/sentimental sort, so would be improved by careful slot planning. It's nominally romance I suppose, but I'd say "storytelling / character interaction" is a better description of its primary feel. --maxb

* Rick and Morty?
** Does not sound promising --maxb
*** I watched the start of episode 1. IMO, it's dreadful :-( --maxb

***** I managed to watch 3m40s of episode 2 before I dropped it. --maxb
* The show from Adult Swim?
** Yes
* Mysterious Girlfriend X?

** The pacing of the initial few episodes was a bit slow. However, it really got enjoyable after that, and as we move into the second cour, it's really showing promise. Also, intrigue. Explosions. Dragons. The most hilarious military character ever. I think it's a candidate. --maxb
